Lupita Nyong’o stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live on Thursday (February 1) and claimed that she’s in jeopardy of loosing friends over the selection of people she’s choosing to invite to the premieres of her anticipated film Black Panther.
The 34-year-old actress stars as Nakia in the upcoming Marvel movie, and admitted that she had so many friends and family that wanted to attend the Hollywood premiere that even though she took 25 people with her, she is still having to dodge calls from disappointed loved ones who didn’t get a ticket.
“I brought 25 people [to the premiere], family members and some of my closest friends, yeah. It wasn’t [enough], you know, for the first time… I’m a part of ‘Star Wars‘, I know frenzy,” Lupita expressed. “But for the first time in my life, people, once the trailer came out last year, people started hitting me up to try and attend the premiere. I was like ‘Oh my god, I’m going to lose friends this time’. I had to be very careful and very strategic about how I invited people.”
“I started with my inner circle, my parents, and then the next circle I’d be like ‘Are you in LA? Oh you’re not? Never mind.’ And then go to the next person,” Lupita added – Watch below!

Lupita Nyong’o is the latest star in Hollywood to come forward with her experiences with producer Harvey Weinstein.
The Oscar-winning actress has written a lengthy op-ed piece for The New York Times, in which she opens up about how she met Weinstein years before breaking out onto the scene with 12 Years a Slave.
Lupita first met Weinstein at an event in Berlin in 2011 while she was a student at the Yale School of Drama. They exchanged information and he later invited her to his home in Westport, Conn. to watch a screening of a movie produced by a rival company. His family was to be present at the screening. At a private lunch, she says he forced her to order an alcoholic beverage and told her she needed to drink it when she refused.
Lupita says that in her first encounter with Harvey, she found him to be “very direct and authoritative, but also charming,” but in the second she “found him to be pushy and idiosyncratic more than anything.”
Shortly after the screening at Weinstein‘s home started, he escorted her out of the theater.
“Harvey led me into a bedroom — his bedroom — and announced that he wanted to give me a massage,” she wrote. “I thought he was joking at first. He was not. For the first time since I met him, I felt unsafe. I panicked a little and thought quickly to offer to give him one instead: It would allow me to be in control physically, to know exactly where his hands were at all times.”
When Harvey tried to take off his pants, Lupita said she was comfortable and headed for the door and said it was time for her to leave.
Lupita wrote about some more encounters with Harvey, the final one being a dinner they had after she felt it was clear that boundaries were in place.
“Before the starters arrived, he announced: ‘Let’s cut to the chase. I have a private room upstairs where we can have the rest of our meal,’” Lupita said. She declined and he told her to leave. When she asked if they were “good,” Harvey replied and said, “I don’t know about your career, but you’ll be fine.”
“I did not see Harvey again until September 2013 when I was in Toronto for the premiere of 12 Years a Slave, the first feature film I was in. At an after-party, he found me and evicted whoever was sitting next to me to sit beside me. He said he couldn’t believe how fast I had gotten to where I was, and that he had treated me so badly in the past. He was ashamed of his actions and he promised to respect me moving forward. I said thank you and left it at that. But I made a quiet promise to myself to never ever work with Harvey Weinstein,” she continued.
Lupita says that Harvey tried to work with her after winning the Oscar, but she refused.
“Now that we are speaking, let us never shut up about this kind of thing. I speak up to make certain that this is not the kind of misconduct that deserves a second chance. I speak up to contribute to the end of the conspiracy of silence,” she concluded the piece......»»

Lupita Nyong’o is on the cover of Allure magazine’s Culture of Hair issue, on national newsstands on February 20.
Here’s what the Black Panther star had to share with the magazine:
On shaving her head as a teenager: “I went into the hair salon, and I said, ‘Let’s cut it off.’ It was almost a dare to myself: Can I live without hair? He shaved it right off. It was so scary but so liberating because I went completely bald.”
On the language of hair: “I like the term ‘kinky.’ Some people don’t like that term, but when I think about my hair, I think of it as African kinky hair.”
On fame: “What fame does is there is an illusion of familiarity that is cast into the world. So it’s about negotiating with that illusion because oftentimes you encounter people who have encountered you, but you haven’t encountered them. It’s a little weird to find your footing. I have to be aware of that possibility, not imprisoned by it. It’s like, how do I find freedom within that awareness?”

Angela Bassett looks gorgeous on the cover of Allure‘s new issue, celebrating the End of Anti-Aging one year after the magazine banned the term.
Here is what the 60-year-old 9-1-1 actress had to share with the mag:
On society’s evolving view of aging: “As we advance, 60 is the new 40, or 70 is the new 50. It keeps getting pushed. But you have to keep the stress down and the attitude hot.”
On how she defines feminism: “[Feminism is] being able to do what you want to do and [being] respected for it and paid fairly for it.”
On how she feels about people curious about her supposed youth-sustaining secrets:
“It feels good that they wonder.”
On working with Ryan Murphy on American Horror Story: Coven: “I appreciate that about Ryan Murphy’s work, the stories he’s interested in telling. He has a brave voice; he’s outspoken. [Coven] was a gumbo of social and feminist issues — femininity and womanhood, also ageism and racism, provocative and topical. It was a really powerful season. What it gives you, the actor, is filet mignon, when you’ve been used to Twinkies.”

Japanese sex robot Bella Hadid lights up the cover of the new Allure Magazine with her lifeless dour mechanical face, and also apparently possesses the advanced humanoid capability of carrying out an interview. Those Japanese. Bravo. I mean it. The fake model interestingly reveals that she wants to be just like one of the few celebrities who has had more work done than her – Cher:
Cher, I have always been obsessed with…. She still to this day goes out on stage and is so major, and I aspire to be like her for the rest of my life. If you talk to her now she just has so much joy and she’s such an amazing person. And Monica Bellucci is just one of the most beautiful women of all time.
“One of the most beautiful women of all time.” You can tell Hadid’s pop culture reference plugin hasn’t been refreshed since 1977. And what exactly would Hadid do on stage in order to follow in the footsteps of her idol? Does she possess some demonstrable skill of entertainment value outside of this that we should know about? Hadid also opens up to Allure about her mom Yolanda’s cure-all for when her daughters were sick:
My mom always said, ‘Drink water. You have a stomachache, a headache? Drink water.’ It was always the thing that she said would heal everything, and now I’m realizing that she was so right.
It did wonders for Lyme disease. Hopefully all of the Hadids will continue to treat any and all medical ailments with only water for years to come.

Model, advocate, and activist Adwoa Aboah is on the cover of Allure magazine’s new issue, on newsstands March 27.
Here’s what the 25-year-old had to share with the mag:
On thinking she couldn’t be a model: “There were certain friends of my mom and dad’s who said I could model, blah, blah, blah, but I was insecure…. I don’t think I was confident enough, and I don’t think there was a space within the industry for somebody who looked like me. I worked; I did odd jobs. There were times I had money and times I didn’t. It was up and down.”
On social media being potentially toxic: “It’s mental. It’s detrimental to everyone. Who is more successful, or rich, or beautiful— you’ll always be able to pick it out. Why didn’t I go to that party? You didn’t want to go in the first place. I try not to spend a lot of time on it.”
On how her struggles with addiction inspired her to create Gurls Talk: “If I had somewhere I felt safe enough to talk about the things going on in my life, whether they be small or big, I don’t think I would have bottled up everything so much and had it fall to pieces during 2014.”

Edie Campbell is on the cover of Allure‘s new January 2018 issue, which is an “Eye Guide” providing 100 best eye-makeup tips.
Here is what the 27-year-old English model had to share with the mag:
On recently speaking out about abuse in the modeling industry: “The conversation needed to open up beyond just Terry Richardson [the photographer accused of sexual harassment and exploitation]. I hope that it brings about a change. Fashion needs to be more open about the darker ways in which we operate.”
On visits with Granny: “My granny had this old-school dressing table with powder puffs and used to do me up in makeup. My mom would pick me up and be horrified: ‘You’ve turned my child into a pageant queen!’ Later, when I was a teenager, I used to do big, grungy, dark eyes, like I’d been punched in the face.”
On how smoky eyes beat dark lips: “I don’t like wearing lipstick on a night out. It smudges and you can’t kiss anyone. It’s a recipe for ‘home by 9 p.m.’”
On the impact of social media on modeling: “It has changed modeling in a really positive way. It enables you to direct the way in which you’re perceived by the public, and it gives you a certain agency over your character. It’s simultaneously incredibly superficial and a more truthful representation of the person. You have to use it in a positive way rather than it just being a kind of nothingness.”
